changing default message view in Outlook XP

[Kelly]

hello, I cannot change the default view in
new/replied/forwarded messages in Outlook XP, while using
Word as Editor. I'm trying to choose "Normal View" but it
always gets back to "Web Layout View" after closing the
program.

thanks in advance,

Kelly

Kelly-

I have similar problem that just started. I use Office
2000 and Word as my email editor. When I click on NEW in
Outlook and a blank msg comes up for me to compose it now
always comes up in Web Layout View. It used to always be
in Normal view. No matter what I do, via Outlook or
Word, it still defaults to Web Layout View. Strange,
under email options it is set to open in Normal view- but
it doesn't!
I checked the others, replied and forwarded, and same
problem there. I feel your pain but am looking for a
solution too. I hope we find one.

If you are trying to use Word 2000 for Outlook 2002 mail, it is not
supported. Just uncheck Word as the editor. Mixed versions do not work.
